Ghaziabad
Ghaziabad is an industrial town of Uttar Pradesh that has more than 14,000 small, medium and large industrial centers and posh localities. These structures have changed the skyline of the once sleepy industrial town into a modern suburb of Delhi and made it listed as one of the most dynamic cities of the world. Emperor Ghaziuddin had founded this city in 1740 where he had built an architectural marvel of 120 rooms. However only its gate and some parts of the boundary remain today.

The historical Sidh Peeth Dudheshwar Nath Math Mandir of Ghaziabad is where the father of Ravana, Rishi Vishveshar used to worship Lord Shiva. It was Chattarpati Shivaji of Maharashtra who had rebuilt this temple where 550 years’ history is inscribed in the walls of the temple.

There are various industries in Ghaziabad manufacturing railway coaches, tapestries, vegetable oil, bicycles, electroplating, diesel engines, pottery, heavy chains, typewriter ribbons, glassware and paint and varnish. Today Ghaziabad is compared as the next Kuala Lumpur of India with its impressive infrastructure, good banking facilities, communication network, industrial estates, modern technical institutes and developed commercial markets.

With the Indira Gandhi International Airport about a half hour drive from Ghaziabad, Ghaziabad has now become a hub of diplomatic and commercial complexes. Unlike most cities of India, the infrastructure of Ghaziabad emphasizes on planned development while providing an eco-friendly environment providing for healthy growth of industry.

Ghaziabad offers promotion of foreign and domestic investments with its liberal and transparent economy. There are many investor friendly policies for you to choose from for your financial investments from its well developed banking system with over 4,500 bank branches.

So it can be seen that Ghaziabad is basically a town that is worth visiting if you are interested in industries. Though there are not many places of attraction to visit, this is a commercialized city that invites the modern and fast paced traveler.
